Daily Read: Toobin on Justice Ginsberg in New Yorker
Jeffrey Toobin's profile of Justice Ginsburg, entitled The Heavyweight, is behind a paywall at The New Yorker, but news outlets are already reporting some material, including Justice Ginsburg's plan not to retire this year (or next).
Toobin characterizes Ginsburg as "reserved, noting that there "is some irony in Ginsburg’s reputation for reserve, because she
is, by far, the current Court’s most accomplished litigator. Before
Chief Justice John G. Roberts, Jr., became a judge, he argued more cases
than Ginsburg did before the Justices, but most of them were disputes
of modest significance."
Worth a read - - - especially for those who like celebrity legal profiles.
